Empowering organizations to cultivate meaningful relationships with their communities, ensuring that fundraising efforts are rooted in equity and aligned with core values.

HOW IT WORKS

I work closely with you to assess your current position. First, we’ll do a SWOT analysis, create a fundraising plan and then help implement that for the year.

Fundraising Strategy + Implementation

This service includes everything above in the Fundraising Strategy but you’ll also get me as part of your fundraising team. I’ll be helping you throughout the year to help implement, troubleshoot, implement, and re-strategize to hit fundraising metrics.

This service means you’ll have director-level expertise in your fundraising team for less than the price of a coordinator.

This is a service that is especially useful for organizations that can’t afford a permanent, full-time, Director of Development OR are in the midst of deciding if their fundraising department needs one.

Fundraising Strategy

There’s the classic adage used in nonprofit- “building a plane while flying it.” Work with me to create a fundraising strategy so that we can create a map with a destination and resource what we need to get here.

This service includes two overarching revenue strategies for the year based on your current resources, staff capacity, and goals.

The most effective fundraising strategy to use is the one that leverages the time, labour, and energy you can devote to it.

Each fundraising strategy is tailored specifically for you and your organization.

Strategic Plan

As a fundraiser and resource mobilizer, I’m aware that our power lies in more than raising money, but also moving people. As someone that has been involved in global movements (Community-Centric Fundraising) and helped rebuild local ones (Association of Fundraising Professionals- Greater Toronto Chapter), strategic plans and how to move an organization towards its mission is a key service.

Grant Writing Services

Grant Writing is more than submitting applications, it’s program visioning and development. I love collaborating with teams and organizations to vision out the nuts and bolts of a program, campaign, or resources.

If you need support from grant-writing, especially the more complex ones that require multiple partnerships, strategic development, and visioning. Let’s talk!

Community-Centric Fundraising Audit

Let’s go through your fundraising practices and see how we can shift the needle more towards CCF.
